In a few short months, Hoopnotica Master Trainer Pamela Crawford will journey to Haiti and have a life-changing impact on many children's lives. Pamela is partnering with Project HOPE Art to bring self and group expression to the children of Haiti through the art of Hooping. Pamela will teach hooping skills that will culminate in a community performance at the end of her residency in Haiti. This performance and the days leading up to it will be filmed for documentation as part of "Project Express Yourself".
As fellow hoopers, we all know that this form of dance and exercise carries many physical, mental and emotional benefits. In dance as a whole, children find ways to use movement for exploration, and to communicate ideas, issues, and their own feelings and thoughts. Adding a hoop to the foundation of dance not only has a fun and memorable impact on their childhood but throughout their life.

Pamela's passion for this project comes from her knowledge that hooping and self-expression are invaluable tools, and she cannot wait to have an impact on these children's lives. But she can't do it alone…
The $4250 raised in this campaign will be used to cover the main expenses of executing this project such as transportation, lodging, equipment and filming costs. All PHA team members and Pamela Crawford are volunteering their time, energy and personal expenses into this project. Any funds we may raise above the $4,250 will go towards the greater PHA mission and its Haitian project partners by bringing supplies and materials to those who need it most. PHA is fiscally sponsored by Fractured Atlas which makes all of your donations tax deductible.
